How to Ace Group Projects (Even If You Hate Them)

Group projects = drama, procrastination, and one person doing 90% of the work. Here’s how to win — and stay sane.

1. Set Roles on Day 1

• Leader: Schedules meetings
• Researcher: Finds sources
• Writer: Drafts content
• Editor: Polishes final

2. Use Shared Tools

• Google Docs → real-time editing
• Trello → task board
• Zoom → quick check-ins

3. Avoid the “One Hero” Trap

If someone slacks, don’t cover. Document effort in peer review.

4. Outsource the Heavy Lifting

5. Rehearse the Presentation

• Each member speaks 2–3 min
• Practice transitions
• Record → fix “umms”

6. Submit Early

Finish 48 hours before deadline. Fix last-minute bugs.

Final Tip: Peer Review Honestly

Rate effort fairly. Professors notice.
